...what the U.S. troops were trained to do. Soldiers whose combat edge has been honed inside an M-1 tank are not well equipped to provide a war's victims with food and water. And the longer soldiers spend as occupiers, the less ready they feel for pure combat and the more unhappy they become. "The worst thing you can do, in terms of retention, is to have square pegs stuck in round holes," says David Chu, the Pentagon's personnel chief. "The guy or gal who doesn't get to do what he or she signed...

Now McDonald's and the others are scrambling to respond to concerns about trans-fatty acids...

My pragmatic, journalist side is upset and angered by the futility of some of these pilgrimages, particularly those of the parents who have brought mentally disabled children here. Holy water doesn’t stop cancer, chemotherapy does; and a three-dollar bar of soap in the shape of the Virgin Mary won’t do much in the way of healing birth defects. But my emotional, aesthetic side is completely struck by the wonder of the scene: by the music echoing from...
